Can someone tell me how to post a photo on here? I have some photos of a boat for sale but cannot figure it out.

Thanks :cry:

ok start by using a photo image host ... i am using photobucket.com but there are many out there

imageshack.com

and others

then on new post click the image tab which i have circled in the photo ... put in the url of where the image is located

Image

open image bracket Image

so the code will look something like this

then click save :)

hope this helps

Thank you!

I do appreciate it, Skeeterguy :D

What if I just want to upload a photo from my desktop?

It looks like you are hosting on Facebook. I am using Mozilla Firefox as my browser.

So I go look at the picture I want to post. Right click and go to copy image location:

Go to the C-boats post board and click the Img button - it will put a tag on the post window like this:
Image

After the tag is down, go after the tag and hit Ctrl-V (or Edit->Paste, or right click, Paste) and the location of the picture will be there:
Image

Finally, hit the Img button again and it will put the closing tag in place:

Submit the post and this is what you get:

I don't think you can do that. I believe the photo has to be hosted somewhere else.

I use Picasa

ok after borrowing a friend's mac ... here is how you put a photo on cboats.net from picaca

first go to picaca site and find the photo that you want to post


then click the buttons like above for windows .. the IMG tags are the same

ok when you are at the photo you want to copy ....

click on the photo using the "Command" and click ... then click copy image url

if this doesn't work let me know and ill see if i can find a different route

Thank you
